Me and my boyfriend, Obanai Iguro, were at a festival. The fireworks were about to start. "Jihyun, I have something to ask you." Obanai voiced. "What is it?" I asked looking over at him as I saw him get one knee with a ring in his hand. My hands flew to my mouth in shock.
"Jang, Jihyun. I fell in love with you since we started dating. You have made me the happiest man on Earth and I was wondering if you would let me give you the Iguro name?" He looked at me with anticipation and love.
"Oh, Obanai." I paused. "Yes! A million times yes!" I hugged him as my eyes watered. He slipped the ring on my finger as the fireworks went off in the background. We sat together and watched them not as boyfriend and girlfriend but as fiancé's.
Well, that was a year ago. Now it was the day before my wedding. My sister who's a tailor spent months making my Hanbok.
"Ok! time for you to try on your Hanbok so i can make changes if needed." Hyojin cheered. "Wheres obanai?" I asked her. "Appa and Minho are helping him get ready." Heewon told me. "You two are going to stay in different houses tonight, since it's tradition." She informed me.
"Really? Is he ok with the blue hanbok?" I asked. "Well he's going to be your husband so ought to be." Hyojin sassed. I chuckled.
WITH OBANI
"Heres your Hanbok. Hyojim made it for you." Kazumi handed it to me. "Ah, Thank you." I bowed to him taking it from him. "Also tonight your going to be staying with me and my wife." He told me. "Why?" I asked him. "Its tradition, Jihyun is staying with Hyojin." He told me. I put the Hanbok on. "Does it fit good?" Minho asked me. "Yes, It does thank you." I bowed to my future in laws.
"Ok, dad is getting the car. Let me help you get changed." He offered. "Oh, no thank you." I declined his offer and got changed back into my shirt and hakama pants. I came back out and saw Minho with his dad. We got into the car and went to Minhos place.
I exited the car and Minho showed me where I was going to stay. "Sorry for the more foreign wedding. Its the only wedding my parents know how to throw." He informed me. "Oh, Its fine." I reassured him. He nodded and told me goodnight.
WITH US
After getting my hanbok fixed a bit my sisters and mom helped me get changed out of it. I got changed back into my original hanbok. My sisters already got a car and we headed to Hyojins place. Her husband Kazumi opened the door. "Ah, Jihyun! Ready for your big day tomorrow?" He asked me cheery. "Im a little nervous but im excited!" I told him. Hyojin lead me to the guest room.
"Goodnight" She told me as she kissed my forehead. "Goodnight." I called back.
WEDDING 🦢
I was in a room getting changed. I sat in the chair as my Hyojin did my makeup and Heewon did my hair. I held my arms in front of my face and walked down the aisle. I saw Obanai looking at me with tears in his eyes. "Jihyun." I heard him whisper. The blue Hanbok looked great on him.
I put my arms down as the priest told us our vows. My parents and siblings clapped in the small crowd in my parent's back yard. "I declare Iguro Obanai and Jang Jihyun husband and wife." The preist prayed over us as me and Obani read our vows.
"We have now been united as husband and wife in this shrine. We respectively pledge to make our hearts as one, and give mutual help and support, faithfully execute our marital duties and responsibilities and, all the days of our lives together with unchanging trust and eternal affection. On June the 17th 1920." We finished.
We then poured Soju for all the guest. They all took a sip. I went back into the house and got changed into a kimono. I came back out as my siblings congratulated me. Obanai hugged me and kissed my head. "You look breath taking, Jihyun. You're making me fall in love all over again." He said with love. "When did you become this soft Obanai?" I teased him looking up at him.
He just laughed kissed me again. Once the ceremony was over my parents made us all sorts of food. "Here you go everyone! Please enjoy." My eomma smiled. "Oh, wow. Thank you eomma!" I thanked her with my siblings. "Thank you, Mrs.Jang." Obanai thank her. She smiled and sat down. "Oh, dont be silly. Just call us Eomma and Appa, you're part of the family now." She waved him off lazily.
"Ah, Thank you Mrs.-Eomma and Appa." He thanked them again. "You're welcome son." My father laughed. "Here you 2 go." My mom handed us a money pack and smiled. "Thank you, Eomma." I thank her taking it. My siblings handed more money packs to Obanai. "Ah, Thank you." He bowed. "Dont bow, remember you're family!" They laughed.
"If you dont mind me asking, What is this?" He asked my mom pointing his chopsticks at the kimchi. "Ah, thats Kimchi, Its good. I just finished that batch, I made sure to make lots of it for the wedding." My mom smiled at him as he nodded. "Its good, Obi. Try some with rice." I told him. Grabbing some and laying it on my rice. I took it and made sure there were lots of rice.
"Here." I held it out to him. He opened his mouth and took a bit. He chewed a bit hummed and made a face then a different one. We all looked at him waiting. "Wow, thats really good, Eomma." He said. "Im glad you like it." She smiled. "Have some more." She urged pushing it towards him. "Looks like hes a kimchi fan!" Hyojin laughed. "Thats good because Eomma makes lots of it!" Minho laughed as his wife, Sayeon rolled her eyes.
Once we all finished the food me and Obani stood up to go back to the home we bought so we could finish moving in. "Oh, Wait!" My mom called out. "What is it Eomma? I asked her concerned. "Here." She handed me a bag. "Oh thank you Eomma." I thank her as she took the packs from Obanai and set them in there along with 2 jars of kimchi. She held up her finger and quickly wrote something down on paper. "This is my Kimchi recipe." She told us as she put it in the bag.
"Stay safe and congratulations again." She hugged me and kissed my forehead. She then hugged Obanai, who hugged her back a little awkwardly. She put her hands on his shoulder. "Take good care of her. I know you will but still." She told him softly. "I will, don't worry." He put his hands on hers. She nodded and walked away.
"Bye everyone! make sure to visit lots." I waved to them as we left. I called over a car as we went home. I rubbed my eyes as we entered our room. I set the bag down on the floor as I felt arms wrap around my waist.
"Obanai, What are you doing?" I asked as he kissed my neck. "Jihyun can I take you tonight?" He asked gently as he started biting my neck hard enough to leave marks but not break skin. "Yes." I moaned out.
